Abstract
The present invention is to provide an apparatus for turning on/off a TV and switching the input source thereof by means of a Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) without separately turning on/off the TV and VCR when playing the VCR. The TV control signal generated by a first microcomputer of the VCR is combined with the audio signal of the VCR by an adder, from which a combined signal is transmitted through an audio line to the external input terminal. In the TV, the combined signal is low-pass-filtered to detect the audio signal, while being high-pass-filtered to detect the TV control signal applied to a microcomputer of the TV to turn on the TV or switch the input source thereof.
Description
The present invention concerns a circuit for automatically controlling the operation of a Television (TV) according to the control signal of a video cassette recorder (VCR) and a method therefor.
Conventionally, when the VCR is to be played, the TV and the VCR must be separately operated. Thus, when the on/off time of the VCR is to be predestined, it is natural that the VCR and the TV must be separately operated. This is an unavoidable problem resulting from the fact that there is no information communication means between the TV and the VCR.
An object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus which causes a TV to be automatically operated according to control signal of the VCR and a method therefor.
In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, the apparatus for controlling the operation of a TV according to the control signal of the VCR contemplates: a first microcomputer installed in the VCR; a second microcomputer installed in the TV, the TV also having a remote controlling receiver; an adder for combining the audio signal produced from an audio signal output means and the TV control signal produced from the first microcomputer, the combined signal being transmitted through the audio line of the VCR; a low pass filter for detecting the audio signal from the combined signal; and a high pass filter for detecting the TV control signal from the combined signal, said apparatus characterizing in that the audio signal detected by the low pass filter and the TV control signal detected by the high pass filter are respectively inputted into the audio/video switch of the TV and the second microcomputer.
For a better understanding of the invention and to show how the same may be carried into effect, reference will now be made, by way of example, to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 illustrates the inventive system; and
FIG. 2 is a flow-chart of the present invention.
The present invention will now be described more specifically with reference to the drawings attached only by way of example.
Referring to FIG. 1, the VCR comprises an audio signal output stage 10 for generating audio signals, first microcomputer 20, and an adder 30 for combining the audio signal produced from the audio signal output stage and the TV control signal of infrared ray (IR) produced from the first microcomputer 20. The TV is controlled by the second microcomputer 50. A signal separator 100 comprises a low pass filter 60 and a high pass filter 70, receiving the combined signal produced from the adder 30. The low pass filter 60 comprises a resistor R1 and a condenser C1, and separates from the combined signal the audio signal which is then transmitted to the audio/video switch (not shown) of the TV. Likewise, the high pass filter 70 comprises a condenser C2 and a resistor R2, and separates from the combined signal the IR signal which is then transmitted to the second microcomputer 50 of the TV.
The operation of the inventive system will now be more specifically described.
The first microcomputer 20 generates the IR signal as the TV control signal according to the format of the remote control of the TV. The IR signal is combined with the audio signal from the audio signal output stage 10 by the adder 30 which outputs the signal through the audio output terminal A of the VCR.
The combined signal is input through the external audio signal input terminal B of the TV into the signal separator 100, thereby being separated into the audio signal lower than 20 KHz and the IR signal higher than 30 KHz respectively through the low pass filter 60 comprising the resistor R1 and the condenser C1 and the high pass filter 70 comprising the resistor R2 and the condenser C2. The audio signal is delivered to the audio/video switch, while the IR signal is input through the diode D1 into the second microcomputer 50 of the TV, thereby being decoded. On the other hand, the IR signal generated by the remote controlling receiver may be transmitted through the diode D2 to the second microcomputer 50.
The operation steps of the inventive system will now be described more specifically with reference to the flow-chart of FIG. 2.
The first microcomputer 20 checks the remote controlling key input in step 2a, and perceives in step 2b whether the power is on or not. The first microcomputer 20 controls the play-on operation of the VCR in step 2c when the power is on in the step 2b.
In step 2d, the first microcomputer 20 outputs the data signal for turning on the TV through the output port A of the VCR. The data signal of an infrared ray is combined with the audio signal by the adder 30, and input through the audio line into the TV. The data signal is input through the high pass filter 70 comprising the condenser C2 and the resistor R2, and the diode D1 into the input terminal of the second microcomputer 50. The microcomputer 50 decodes the inputted signal to turn on the relay for supplying the TV with power.
In step 2e, the first microcomputer 20 generates the data signal of IR for switching the input source of the TV, which is transmitted through the audio line and thereafter the IR signal generated from the first microcomputer 20 controls the TV to switch the input source of the TV to that of the VCR mode, thereby displaying a signal from the VCR. If the power is not on in the step 2b, the first microcomputer 20 generates the data signal for turning off the TV in step 2f. The data signal for turning off the TV is, as described above, combined with the audio signal by the adder 30, transmitted through the audio line to the signal separating means 100. The data signal separated by the separating means 100 causes the second microcomputer 50 to turn off the TV. Thereafter, in step 2g, the first microcomputer 20 is operated to turn off the VCR.
As described above, the present invention provides the means for simultaneously operating the VCR and the TV by using the audio line for transmitting the data signal to control the TV from the VCR, so that no additional line is required for the additional inventive function, thereby simplifying the circuit construction. Of course, it is well understood that to predestine the on/off time of the VCR is to simultaneously control the TV, so that it is not necessary to separately turn on/off the TV.
The foregoing description shows only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Various modifications are apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention which is only limited by the appended claims. Therefore, the embodiment shown and described is only illustrative, not restrictive.
